Confirming, this one annoys me personally.
In order to use my docking station I have to plug in my computer and
then hit the "switch displays" button, requiring me to open my laptop.
Once it's no longer outputting to the laptop screen I then close the
laptop, but my monitor output goes dark until I move the mouse a bit.
Gnome-power-manager shouldn't turn off the output, even when this
setting is enabled, when using an external monitor. I'm not quite sure
how to handle the twinview case - perhaps then only blanking the laptop
screen (disabling twinview) would be the best solution.
